"Grand Theft Auto 6" has fans waiting on the edge of their seats for a release date and they might need to prepare for some bad news. Reports suggest that "GTA 6" will be delayed to 2020 because of the new VR feature.
Despite the fact that a specific release date for "Grand Theft Auto 6" has yet to be announced, news on the game being pushed back to 2020 is spreading across the internet like wildfire. According to Game N Guide, Rockstar Games' "GTA 6" will be incorporating a new VR feature that will slow down the game's development.
The massively open world game that is the "Grand Theft Auto" franchise is definitely not an easy project to complete. The complex scenarios and interactive city alone will already take a lot of time to develop. Now that Rockstar Games has decided to include a nifty VR feature among many others, the release date has been pushed back to 2020.
If fans take the above mentioned as extremely bad news, it is best to prepare for what is to come. According to another report, the main reason for all the delay is Rockstar Games' other project, "Red Dead Redemption 2." It seems that the game developer is prioritizing this title over the long-time fan favorite "Grand Theft Auto" franchise.
There were even a few rumors that suggested "GTA 6" is canceled altogether following the current legal battle taking place internally. There are reports that claim that the legal battle between the company and its former head Leslie Benzies is causing the developers to work slower than usual.
Will avid fans of the game still see "Grand Theft Auto 6" in 2020? Or will "GTA 5" be the last installment of the franchise. Stay tuned to Jobs & Hire for more updates on the game's development.
